Wait til the quantum M8s come in stock, they perform better(especially for next gen gaming) and will be similarly priced

I bought into all the Vizio hype and got a 65 inch P series last year. In a nutshell, it sucks. The picture is fine, but the OS is slow and buggy. The TV will sometimes go black and require a restart. Just a general clunker, with other somewhat minor annoyances. IMHO, Vizio tries to look upscale, but it's really a cheapo TV inside. If you want cheap, go with a Roku or Amazon TV. Higher end, look elsewhere. BTW, I did get a cheapo 65 inch TCL TV and it runs circles around the P series as far as OS. As far as picture quality, yes, the Vizio looks a bit better, but not enough to deal with all the day to day junk.

An apple tv4k box, nvidia shield, or the budget friendly 4k firestick ($25 bucks on prime day or for your first order) is a simple solution. Buying a tv, especially mid to high end, all i care about is PQ

This M7 has all the same specs as the M8 aside from # of local dimming zones. The biggest reason not to get either the M7 or M8 is the 60hz native refresh rate, so no 4k 120hz gaming. Gotta step up to P series for that

Couldn't agree with this more. If you're buying a TV for its OS, you're going to have a bad time. Prioritize picture quality above all else.

I stand corrected. For some reason I thought they added 120 support for the m8. Been looking at too many TVs this week. Personally I grabbed a Sony 900h from the AAFES deal in prep for my PS5

How does the Costco warranty work? If I buy this under a friends Costco account and need to warranty it, what happens?

I have the very similar M658-G1.
This tv has incredible color depth, if you want to watch lots of 4k hdr movies, this is a terrific choice.

The "SmartCast" platform is not nearly as slow as someone stated, any lag it has doesn't ever bother me. It's a very short time spent that you're finding the actual app you want, and the actual apps run as well as they are developed; so Netflix and AppleTV for example run silky smooth. I've only had to reboot the tv maybe three times, which was easy, and that's with eight months of what I'd call a shameful amount of usage. Overall, I find the platform useful, and it keeps adding new apps, so I know it's being worked on.

Casting works great from both android and iOS, and my google assistant can take a command like "Play Space Force from Netflix on the TV", and it'll start, or resume where I left off, within a matter of seconds.

My only gripe is a manageable one, for me. The tv could use some more brightness on its backlight, especially with HDR.
If I don't have the curtains drawn in the daytime, I have to switch picture modes(one button on remote) to use the one that I custom saved with a lower gamma value, and also remember to switch back at night.

I was in the same situation as you were in. I ended up waiting for the Vizio M8. The real black friday sale are around the corner.
